Adventures in Bodily Autonomy
edited by Raven Belasco
"For this distinctive anthology, the royalties from which will be
donated to NARAL Pro-Choice America, Belasco (Blood Ex Libris) brings
together 14 thoughtful speculative tales centered on issues of
reproductive freedom and female agency. The opener, Nisi Shawl’s
stirring “Queen of Dirt,” about a Black teen at summer camp, explores
racial bias and questions about what makes a family, demonstrating
that the anthology has more on its mind than a medical
procedure....Tones vary throughout: some stories are bleak, presenting
hard choices or pyrrhic victories, but others sound more hopeful
notes. These timely tales both draw readers in and have the potential
to advance important conversations."

Sacraments for the Unfit
by Sarah Tolmie
“These stories could be the mad progeny of Umberto Eco and Ursula
K. LeGuin: fiendishly cunning thought-twisters that shimmer with
compassion and charisma.”

Numinous Stones
by Holly Lyn Walrath
From Elgin Award winning author Holly Lyn Walrath, a haunting
collection of poetry about grief and the sacred that digs deep beyond
a fairytale world into the grave. Told in the circular pantoum form,
Numinous Stones is a poetic graveyard littered with horror—from
sentient scarecrows to silent skeletons to scorched sacred spaces. As
each line repeats, new meaning gleams like bones unearthed in a
shattered realm of monsters, dark forests, and dusty ghosts.

The Language of Water
by Elizabeth Clark-Stern
"I found this novel's complex characters and the richness of their
relationships—in love and in war—tremendously compelling. Sara,
Kethuda, Ruqia, and the rest of the cast are skillfully drawn. A story
about the future devastation wrought by climate change has the
potential to be a grim read, but instead Elizabeth Clark-Stern has
written a gripping feminist tale exploring love and power, violence
and forgiveness, despair and hope. The Language of Water is a
page-turner and a paean to resistance."
